Three stakes races on Saturday and two more Sunday make for a super and spooky Halloween weekend of racing at Woodbine.

The premier race for Canadian-bred 2-year-olds, the $250,000 CORONATION FUTURITY, edition 118, headlines the weekend action which also includes the Grade 3 Ontario Derby on Sunday.

The Coronation Futurity, a big test for babies at 1 1/8 miles on Tapeta, tends to produce the early favourite for the next year’s Queen’s Plate but as most know, the Plate has not been won by a Coronation winner since 1975.
